You are using subscripts [0] in AddColumn. They should not be there.
Normally Filter = 1; to see all bars of data, or Filter = Buy; to see
only bars with Buy signals. You can certainly do Filter = C > 4.0 to see
only bars where the Close is greater than 4.0. You can even use Filter >
barCount - 15; to see just the last 15 days of AddColumn(), but you must
remove all the subscripts[0]. All you need is the first
AddColumn(Close,"Close"); which shows all bars that match the Filter.
You can also Explore just the last 15 days in AA by setting n bars or
last n days to 15, same results on a daily database, different if using
intraday data, and setting Filter = 1;

Subject: [amibroker] Newbie Problem Looping the last 15 days. It maybe
me. Maybe AMI broker.
Hi,
I want to back test the last 15 days (ONLY) for some data anomalies
like gapup, etc. I have a simple (STARTER!) function for this
below. I'm beginning to think I don't see array processing
correctly.
I did read the manual on arrays and it's not clear on some points so
finally I did the following:
Filter = (Close[0] > 4.0) ;
AddColumn(Close, "Close");
AddColumn(Close[0], "Close0");
AddColumn(Close[1], "Close1");
AddColumn(Close[2], "Close2");
Which gets:
Ticker Date/Time Close close1 close2 close3 close4
JCP 11/9/2006 79.55 53.75 52.21 53.40 54.18
Clearly, I'm not getting correct elemens of the array. The values
shhould all be it ther $70's. Maybe I misunderstood the
Manual but the page on arrays is skimpy and poorly written.
Maybe someone can just point me to some better
examples/documentation.
I read it that "close[0] equals day1 in his tables??"
I'm using QP3.
Or maybe show me what's wrong with the below function.
Thanks for Any suggestions,
BobLenard (programming newbie)
// *************************
////
function Dropper(period)
{
yesno = 0;
global dropdelta;
dropdelta[0] = 0; //initaliation & needed for debug!
for (i = 1; i <= 15; i++)
{
dropdelta [i] = High[i] - Low [i +1 ] ;
}
for (j = 1; j <= period; j++)
{
if ( dropdelta[ j ] < 0)
yesno = 1;
}
return yesno;
}
gotadrop = Dropper(15);
Filter = (Close[0] > 4.0) ;
AddColumn(Close, "Close");
AddColumn(dropdelta[1], "dtest1");
AddColumn(dropdelta[2], "dtest2");
AddColumn(dropdelta[3], "dtest3");
AddColumn(dropdelta[4], "dtest4");
